Outdoor Fall Decorations :)

Fall is our favorite time of year!  Cooler weather, FOOTBALL, pumpkin spice lattes, changing leaves, and carving pumpkins!  Here is how our decorations look this year!

MJ took an old fake pumpkin, spray painted it bronze, and used silver upholstery nails to make our monogram on it.  Turned out great... Thanks Pinterest for the idea :)

Love how it turned out this year!

Pearce's Pumpkin Farm

We went on our 3rd annual trip to Pearce's Farm Stand on Saturday.  The Pearce's Farm is across the street from my Great Grandma and Grandpa Kammes' old farm. 

The Kammes' and Pearce's were great friends waaaaay back in the day!

Growing old, but not up!

Clearly Cory forgot the fact that the point of these is to NOT show the rest of your body :) 

He cracks me up!!!!



Dinner and Farkle with Nicole and Ben

This is a picture of M.J.'s best friend Nicole and her boyfriend Ben.  Nicole, Ben, and M.J. all went to middle and high school together. Nicole and M.J. have been friends for 20 years!!! Nicole and Ben purchased a cabin in the Northwoods about a year ago and we finally got a chance to see their new digs while we were up north this weekend.  We had a delicious dinner and they introduced us to the dice game 'Farkle'.  We can't wait until the next time we are with our amazing friends!!!

My Frampa!

This is me and my Frampa.  We spent a lot of time with him while we were up north this weekend.  My Frampa is one of my favorite people on the planet and I cherish EVERY SINGLE minute I spend with him.  He is DA BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's House

 Buffett's Grandma and Grandpa live on Plum Lake in Sayner, WI.  They live on a hill.  About half way down to the lake, there is a landing were we stood to throw him the ball.  The lake is REALLY shallow and Buffett can run for about 400 yards out. 

He played in the water for 30 mins. on Saturday and Sunday.

It is SO beautiful in the Northwoods!

Our new niece - Faith Robin Reid

We FINALLY got to meet our beautiful new niece Faith this weekend.  M.J.'s friends Nikki and Tiffany graciously allowed us to use some of their photo props and gave M.J. some wonderful advice on how to take newborn photos.  They turned out pretty good....though we think it had more to do with how beautiful the subject of the photos was and not M.J.'s talent :)

 Her daddy loves her lots and lots!

 So does her mommy!

 Daddy's hand holding one of her tiny feet!

 Grandma and Grandpa LOVE their first grandbaby!

 She is the sweetest, most beautiful girl I have ever seen!

Uncle Cory loved her too!
